Recent respective form guides
Millwall's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Lions have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Southampton's away form is none too clever either, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. The Saints's have scored 7 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 9.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Not a lot has been going right generally for Southampton on their travels as of late, but I can certainly see them gleaning a point from their game against Millwall. Score draw
